Simple but tasty food. Try the dishes with pomegranate sauce for a nice combination of flavors.
First experience in a Persian restaurant, and I gotta say I liked it. We didn’t exactly know what to expect, so it took us a while to decide what to order. Since we couldn’t choose an appetizer, we went with a mixed plate which contained a small sample of different ones. Falafel, different spreads, and stuffed vine leaves (delicious) with some naan. They were all quite good, but the hummus and eggplant spread both deserve special praise.
The dishes are mostly meat based, with skewers and rice dishes available. I do remember seeing some vegan options too. I had lamb with lentils and rice, Girlfriend had falafel, and Friend had the best dish of the all, lamb with pomegranate sauce and barberry rice. In hindsight we should’ve all ordered that, because it was delicious. Very nice combination of sweet, sour and rich. Rice was fluffy and not sticky.
Dessert presented the same decision problem as appetizers, and we got the mixed platter. None were very sweet, which we liked. The saffron ice cream was refreshing but Friend thought it was a little weird. The cardamom pudding tasted a little funny, not sure what to make of it.
My only regret is not getting a dish with pomegranate sauce. Other than that I was happy with my experience here.
